Togo has allegedly declined Ghana's request to use the Kégué Stadium for their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Sudan.

As reported by PURE TV, Togo stated that they need the stadium in optimal condition for their own upcoming qualifier against Algeria.

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) had been considering relocating Ghana’s home match to Togo, with Ghanasoccernet revealing that both Togo and Ivory Coast were options, with Togo initially being the preferred choice.

However, following Togo's refusal, Ivory Coast is now Ghana's only alternative to host Sudan.

The GFA is searching for a new venue after CAF revoked the Baba Yara Sports Stadium’s approval for Ghana's remaining home fixtures.

Ghana currently lacks an international-standard stadium, as all its national venues have been shut down for renovations.

The National Sports Authority (NSA), responsible for managing the country's stadiums, closed Baba Yara Sports Stadium after criticism of its poor pitch condition following the Black Stars' loss to Angola.

In addition, the NSA also closed the Accra Sports Stadium and Cape Coast Sports Stadium, both of which were also found unsuitable for hosting matches.

Should these venues remain unavailable, Ghana will be forced to play its upcoming matches at a neutral location, as none of the three national stadiums meet CAF's category 3 requirements.

The first-leg match between Ghana and Sudan is scheduled for October 7, 2024.
